Blumhouse’s Newest Horror Outing: ‘Truth Or Dare’ Starring Lucy Hale

EXCLUSIVE: On the heels of two big box office successes — M. Night Shymalan’s Split and Jordan Peele’s Get Out — Jason Blum’s Blumhouse is putting together another project, this one from writer-director Jeff Wadlow called Truth Or Dare. The film will star Lucy Hale (Pretty Little Liars) who is finalizing her deal. Wadlow is the writer behind Bates Motel and the writer-director of Kick Ass 2.

The plot follows a college student in Mexico who is conned into playing a supernatural version of Truth or Dare. The game doesn’t stop and follows her back home. The screenplay was written by Wadlow, Chris Roach (Non-Stop) and Jillian Jacobs from a story by Michael Reisz and Wadlow, Roach and Jacobs.
